limit
\[\lim_{x \rightarrow 1}\frac{ \sqrt[3]{x}-1 }{ \sqrt[4]{x}-1 }\]
familiar with L'hopital rule?
no
I tried substitution but it does not work
is there any way you can do it without the rule
yes
hmm yes.. what is the highest possible power of x that can be in your question?
so mulriply and divide by x-1 a=1
\(\huge\lim_{x \rightarrow a}\frac{ {x^n}-a^n}{ x-a }=na^{n-1}\)
n=1/3 in numerator and 1/4 in denom.
could we first try with \[t^3=\sqrt[3]{x}\]
not required, i think...
\[\frac{ (x^{1/3}-1)(x-1) }{ (x^{1/4} -1)(x-1)}\]
more like \(\huge \frac{\frac{x^{1/3-1}}{x-1}}{\frac{x^{1/4}-1}{x-1}}\)
don't multiply them out, bring it in the form as i shown
then just use formula in num and denom
okay
\[\frac{ (x^{1/9}-1)(x^{2/9}+x^{1/9}+1) }{ (x^{1/8}-1)(x^{1/8}+1) }\] I think
what the ... ?
ohhh sorry I am supposed to use the rule above not factorise
plz go through my comments....
\[\frac{ 1/3x^{-2/3} }{ 1/4x^{-3/4} }\] then limit becomes\[\frac{ 1/3 }{ 1/4 }=4/3\]
thats good now :)
doubts ?
the formular you used looks like the derivaetive rule
according to formula its \(\huge \frac{ 1/3 (1)^{-2/3} }{ 1/4(1)^{-3/4} }\)
or binomial
it is.....i don't know whether u can use it directly here....
thanks now I get it so does not depend on the value we are approaching
it does, \(\huge\lim_{x \rightarrow a}\frac{ {x^n}-a^n}{ x-a }=na^{n-1}\) the limit depends on a
here fortumately a=1
yes it is really helpful I will call it L'Hartnn rule
thanks
lol! :P welcome ^_^
if we let \[x=t^{12}\]\[\frac{ t^4-1 }{ t^3-1 }=\frac{ (t-1)(t+1)(t^2+1) }{ (t-1)(t^2+t+1) }=\frac{ (t+1)(t^2+1) }{ t^2+t+1 }\] \[\frac{ 2(2) }{ 1+1+1 }=4/3\]
